** Chinese supplement Bunaogao is a scam, don't buy in to the online marketing! **

I wondered if you had heard of the Chinese supplement Bunaogao? I have seen this mentioned a bit on the internet but I have not heard of any patients with ALS actually giving it a try. I have also contacted some ALS associations and basically they have heard of it but they do not have any scientific studies to date that prove that it actually works.

My mother has had the illness for almost 16 years and I am researching possible alternatives as I would love to see her well again someday.

thank you in advance

We had someone about a year ago here extolling the virtues of it and wanting everyone here to buy it. I don't think the ALS sufferers beat his door down trying to get it but you never know. Maybe it has helped some but who knows if it was that or the fact they quit eating red meat or whatever. I am not aware of any reputable sources saying this might slow down or cure ALS.
Let the buyer beware. There are a lot of people preying on peoples false hopes.

thank you for your response. From the feedback I have been getting it does not seem like a realistic possibilty.
